Hey, just curious, what are Kalamazoo Airsoft's rules regarding mesh goggles and masks?

Mesh goggles are not allowed. Many tests have been done and some bbs will fragment through the mesh, and since it is a possibility, they cannot be used.
Mesh protection anywhere else is fine though, I myself use a half face mesh mask for my lower face.

BB's can break on Mesh goggles and send shards of plastic into your eyes.

Since the air can escape from the lower vents in flakjaks then go right out the mesh mask, it seems like it would... I ask because I have some flakjaks and unfortunately HAVE to wear glasses under them or else i'm blind as a bat, and they fog up a decent amount during games... :/

If the part of the goggles is blocked your goggles may still fog because the heat cannot escape quick enough from the bottom, while the top vent is being blocked. Half mesh mask's probably have somewhat of a possitive effect on fogging.

You know after I have used the Anti-Fog from Safety Glasses USA I have not had one issue with fogging.
Also on the mesh mask, yeah you dont need to loose and eye.
